has pockets, tight in the arms
This was a comfortable dress to wear, except in the arms. The bands around the arm were a touch tight, but my arms are a little thick, so this is not a universal problem. The tie at the waist needed to be ironed.

Annah Dress
Untitled in Motion
Size Worn: M
Usual Size: 6
Height: 5' 2"
Weight: 127lbs
Bust: 32DD
not for short or stout frames
The fit was alright, but I am short in the torso, so the straps were not stable without fashion tape, and the back bulged at the waist. It's good to smooth out the tulle in the skirt, as this will help with volume and drape. The skirt made me feel a bit wider than I already am, but this is more so when sitting down. It fit in the bust, but with DD cups, it was tight and difficult to close the zipper. It would look better on a taller frame than mine.

Beautiful sculptural look, runs small
The dress was too long for my hight in Regular and there wasn't a Petite option. I had to order a size up because it runs small. Otherwise, it is a good looking dress.

Be prepared for very revealing neckline and sidelines
This dress did not fit me well because I am short in the torso. As a result, the already plunging neckline revealed that much more of my décolleté. However, I paired it with a beautiful bra, with black lace detailing, and it really looked like part of the dress. This was especially useful on the sides, which also come down very low. Definitely try it, but order an alternative, backup dress if you are looking to wear this to an event.

Cool red color, runs small, short skirt
I just managed to fit into this dress, although a size up probably would have been too big. The color looked great on cool tone skin. I also had to be careful about the bra because the straps were showing. It is short in the skirt.

Manon Mini Dress

Beautiful lilac, with cute cut-outs on sides
This dress was a beautiful cool-toned lilac, and the sweetheart neckline was very flattering. I am short in the torso, so there was some room in the shoulders and my bra strap would show, but not overtly. I also didn't realize that it has cut-outs on the sides, but these are adjustable.

Cool emerald green color, cut can be a bit overwhelming
On a shorter, stout frame, like mine, the amount of fabric and the cut can overwhelm the figure. However, it fit my shape and I still liked it. The sleeves were very fun to wear.

Cool tone blue with punchy red polkadots.
The blue is a periwinkle, and the red polkadots made the textile used in this dress very eye-catching. The romantic styling with the central ruching on the bodice and in the sleeves gives a 1930s retro feel. I would recommend trying with a light tulle slip for a fuller skirt.

Spring Time Ruched Dress

Excellent with the right slip
The deep blue is good for a cool skin tone. The pussycat bow eliminated the need for a necklace and emphasized my retro 1950s style earrings. I needed to wear it with a minimizer bra, since my regular bra made me too busty and the top buttons were popping.

romantic, puffed sleeves add breadth
This sweater was very warm, wool, and slightly itchy. I wore it with a camisole and denim jeans. The sleeves did add a bit more breadth to my petite frame, making me look shorter.
